I'm sorry for you, plushyfan, but I don't like this! :no: First of all, it's a saint-sens mix of Introduction and Rondo capriccioso and The Swan, not Romeo&Juliet, but the choreography... :disagree: The step sequence and the Choreo Sequence are quite good, energetic and difficult, but the first 1:30... No transitions excpet arm movements, it looks like he doesn't care at all about the music, I thought "maybe there is a mistake, and this is not the right music" because the first half of the program is 100% disconnetted with it... And the costume :disapp:, I really hope he's going to change it... But, as always, his jumps look great!
Wow, Tatiana looks strikingly gorgeous in that dress!
The music or the choreo do nothing for me, though...:disapp: Do they (or Nikolai) really believe they can beat S/S with that rather 'empty' SP??? Personally I would much prefer last season's SP. That one might be empty as well, but it was so cool at least.

wasn't that the same criticsm they got last season's SP ? tehye did almost beat them by a few points last season
I don't think it matters that much their advantage they have chemistry and real passion compared to S/S who lack it and skates a bit robotic

S/S robotic??
Geez, I think it is the opposite and Russian teams - whether Pairs or Dance are living in the past.
Faux romance is all the Russians have ever shown - again and again...zzzzzzzzzz.... and in the 21st century the whole concept is dated.
some maybe but I find Elena/Nikita , Tatiana/Maxim do have real passion
I just see it in their skating in V/T that they really pour their heart out and have something chmesitry from both
something that detaches me from S/S, I think Robin isn't expressive at all.
Anyway... the user that posted Plushy has Artur too.

I like that program so much! Some mistakes on the jumps, but I like the overall performance
Is this a different performance? Some of the stuff looks slightly different.
Right, that's from today's test skates, the first video was from a small local competition. This performance also looks different because is was recorded from a different angle, from the judges side.
